The Vampire’s Mage Reading Order

The Demons of Fire and Night Universe is a collection of six interconnected series written by C.N. Crawford, the pen name for a husband-and-wife writing duo. Christine brings a lifelong fascination with New England folklore, while Nick grew up reading fantasy and science fiction through Vermont’s long winters. Together they have published twenty books in this shared world between 2016 and 2020.

The universe blends urban fantasy with fae mythology, demon lore, and paranormal romance. Readers enter a version of our world where fae courts operate in the shadows, vampires command armies, and fallen angels have torn civilization apart. The Vampire’s Mage series follows a demon hunter named Rosalind who discovers she may be the very thing she was trained to destroy. The Demons of Fire and Night series centers on Ursula, a woman caught in a war between gods of fire and night while suffering from retrograde amnesia. Later series shift focus to fae academies, espionage in a post-apocalyptic London, and the politics of underwater fae kingdoms.

Each series can be read independently, but returning characters and overlapping storylines reward readers who work through the full universe. The Institute of the Shadow Fae follows a demi-fae bartender recruited into a dangerous academy, while A Spy Among the Fallen is set in a shattered version of London where a young fae woman searches for her missing sister. Court of the Sea Fae rounds out the universe with a story about a displaced fae princess who strikes a bargain with a god of the sea. Fans of Ilona Andrews and Sarah J. Maas will find plenty to enjoy here.
